Becoming a Canadian Certified Professional Ergonomist

Applicants are required to submit transcripts, employment histories and work products indicating that specific educational requirements and professional competencies have been met.

Application Deadlines are March 1st and September 1st

Each application is reviewed by two board members. Applications are processed within 6 months of receipt. All certified ergonomists must agree to abide by the CCCPE Code of Ethics.

Please be sure to check this page for the latest version of the application 2 months prior to the application deadline to ensure that you have the most recent version of the application. While the competencies cannot be changed without a vote by CCCPE membership, clarifications and changes to the layout may be made at any time.

A non-refundable application fee must be submitted together with the application. Please download Application Kit for applicable fees.

An important first step for most applicants is to review their hours of education obtained in each category of knowledge for certification. This step is completed using the Education Course Allocation Log. Download the log here to start your review.
